ICFF 2026: The Standout Products at New York’s Biggest Design Fair
From playfully rhythmic glass sconces by Anna Dawson to a classic Paul Poiret lounge chair reissued by Ethnicraft
This year marks the final edition of NYCxDesign anchored by ICFF and its integrated sister fair, Wanted, which will shift to a November schedule beginning next year. That transition hardly dampened the energy at the Javits Center, which welcomed hundreds of exhibitors from May 17–19 unveiling covetable furnishings, lighting, and home accessories. Framed by the theme “Common Ground: A Dialogue on Design and Shared Values,” the fair cast cross-cultural exchange, material ingenuity, and socially minded thinking as key forces within contemporary design practice. Thousands of designers, industry professionals, and enthusiasts flocked to the fairgrounds to witness the innovation firsthand.
Below, Galerie highlights the products, booths, and moments that stood out the most.
Ligne Roset
Erwan Bouroullec conceived Ligne Roset’s Kobold Sofa as a deeply modular system attuned to the fluid demands of contemporary living. Upholstered wooden sides frame shelving, tables, and seating in configurations that evoke a compact interior landscape. Kobold adapts with remarkable agility, whether scaled for a petite apartment or a sprawling living room.
Sin
Inspired by James Turrell’s investigations of light as presence, Virginia Sin’s new Field Collection explores illumination through a folded, prism-like shade that diffuses light in nuanced ways. Ceramic backplates, interchangeable shades, and hardware finishes yield 120 possible combinations, each casting glows that range from crisp and directional to softly luminous.
Taiwan-Lantern
Working in dialogue with traditional East Asian craftsmanship, Taiwan-Lantern debuted Wu Xing–inspired colorways for its Lotus Charm Floor Lanterns. Handmade with the country’s last remaining traditional lantern factory and master artisans, the lights pair lacquered wood, marble, porcelain, and Makino bamboo with hand-colored shades in rosy Huǒ and terracotta Tǔ hues.
Ethnicraft
Ethnicraft’s handsome Roan Lounge Chair revisits a 1930s classic by Paul Poiret through a more streamlined lens. A solid wood frame wraps around the generously proportioned seat, giving the compact silhouette a grounded presence. Clean lines and structured arms lend Roan an easy versatility suited to hospitality settings and warmly layered residential interiors alike.
Danver
As outdoor kitchens grow more sophisticated, Danver partnered with The Galley to introduce a selection of Kitchen Workstation systems that streamline prepping and cooking. Integrated with Danver, Brown Jordan Outdoor Kitchens, and Trex Outdoor Kitchens cabinetry, the collaboration delivers polished outdoor culinary setups tailored to contemporary life.
Anna Dawson
Anna Dawson’s delightful Dancer Collection translates the expressive motion of dance into sprightly glass sconces with fluid, intuitive silhouettes. The symmetrical version channels the poised stance of a dancer through an hourglass profile, while the asymmetrical design twists organically along its vertical axis, creating a sense of graceful movement across the wall.
Cuff Studio
Last year, Cuff Studio opened a showroom near New York’s Flower District, which inspired Petal Promenade, its latest collection of furniture and lighting. Developed with Scalamandré textiles, the series layers saturated color and ornamental patterns across striking silhouettes, weaving together references from European decorative arts and global textile traditions.
Warp & Weft
Rather than debuting an entirely new collection, Warp & Weft presented a tightly edited retrospective tracing the rug studio’s evolving point of view. Four rugs distilled the brand’s lineage, from the geometric clarity of a Kia Sar weaving to an Arts and Crafts–era antique and a contemporary Himalayan hand-knotted piece that channels its modern sensibility.
Brizo
Rooted in the idea of “art without artifice,” Brizo’s new Faircroft collection introduces nine customizable faucet configurations that bring cohesion and versatility to the kitchen. It debuts the brand’s first living finish, Unlacquered Brass, alongside its first widespread kitchen faucet with SmartTouch Technology and a new wall-mounted bridge faucet offered with integrated accessories including a soap dispenser and jewelry tray.
